Cayce Aksoy currently serves as the Genetic Science Director at S&G Labs Hawai'i, a high-complexity CLIA-accredited clinical toxicology reference laboratory located in the picturesque Kailua-Kona. In this pivotal role, Cayce leverages extensive expertise in toxicological analysis and method development to enhance the laboratory's capabilities in detecting and quantifying various analytes from complex human matrices. His responsibilities encompass the meticulous validation of analytical methods, employing advanced techniques such as solid-phase extraction and hydrolysis-assisted dilutions to ensure the highest standards of accuracy and reliability in toxicological testing.
Cayce's journey to S&G Labs began while he was working as a Quality Assurance Coordinator and Technical Specialist at Tennessee Valley Pain Management in Chattanooga, Tennessee. His transition to Hawai'i in May marked a significant step in his career, allowing him to bring his specialized knowledge in toxicology to a new and dynamic environment. At S&G Labs, he operates and maintains sophisticated instrumentation, including the ABSciex Triple Quad 4000, 4500, and 5500 series mass spectrometers, which are crucial for high-throughput toxicological analyses.
In addition to his technical skills in chemistry and biochemistry, Cayce excels in leadership and the development of Standard Operating Procedures (SOPs) that streamline laboratory operations and enhance compliance with regulatory standards. His proficiency in laboratory management, combined with a strong foundation in hematology and analytical software, positions him as a key contributor to the laboratory's mission of delivering precise and timely toxicological assessments. As he continues to drive innovation and excellence at S&G Labs Hawai'i, Cayce remains committed to advancing the field of clinical toxicology and improving patient outcomes through rigorous scientific inquiry and collaboration.
